Piping Schematic of Basic Heating Control with Mixing Station, 3 Manifolds in Parallel and High Temp
with Powerheads and Boiler Relay
NOTES: Piping
1. This drawing shows system piping concept only. Installer is responsible for all equipment & detailing required by local codes.
2. Size header piping for maximum ow velocity of 2 ft. / sec.
3. All other piping should be sized for a maximum ow velocity of 4 ft. / sec.
4. Install a minimum of 12 diameters of straight pipe upstream of all circulators and check valves.
5. Install isolating anges or isolating valves on all circulators.
6. Install purging valve(s) on all circuits.
7. All closely spaced tees shall be within 4 pipe diameter center to center spacing.
8. Install minimum of 6 pipe diameters of straight pipe upstream and downstream of all closely spaced tees.
9. Differential pressure bypass valve prevents ow noise under partial load conditions (some zone valves closed).
10. Set differential pressure bypass valve to delta P of distribution system with all zones open + 1 psi
11. Not all components may be required depending on control strategy (i.e. constant circulation).
